Felon Attacks “Unarmed” Motorist in NYC, Gets Last Surprise of His Life

A Brooklyn felon with a criminal history that goes back 20 years messed with the wrong guy in a fit of road rage that turned out to be his last.

Delrawn Small, 37, chased another driver seven blocks after he believed the driver cut him off on on Atlantic Avenue on Monday around midnight. When he caught up with the driver, he began punching him through the car’s open window.

That turned out to be a big mistake, because the driver of the car was off-duty New York Police Officer Wayne Isaacs — and he was armed. Isaacs defended himself against the attack and shot Small three times, killing him.

While we can’t get into Small’s head, it’s possible that he thought the driver of the car was unarmed because of New York’s strict gun laws.

Had Isaacs not been armed, he could have been seriously injured or killed. It’s a good thing he had a weapon to defend himself.

Small had a long criminal history that included 19 arrests, sources said. He also spent some time behind bars. Between 1996 and 2010, he served three prison terms.

Apparently, doing time didn’t teach Small very much — and that’s a shame. However, it’s also a reminder that there are those who will always have violent tendencies.

The shooting was still under investigation.

“The officer was being assaulted and there was no opportunity for him to de-escalate the situation when someone ran across the street and attacked him. He’s a victim, trapped in his vehicle,” a police source told the New York Post.
